XI.
Blossoms rain upon the lea;
Moonbeams on the silent sea;
Dewdrops on the linden-tree;
And my fancies upon thee.
Moonbeams on the silent sea;
Dewdrops on the linden-tree;
And my fancies upon thee.
Milk-white blossoms fade away;
Quenched in night the moony ray;
Dews are dead at break of day;
Fancies droop all wan and gray.
Quenched in night the moony ray;
Dews are dead at break of day;
Fancies droop all wan and gray.
But the lea blooms fair and bright;
And the sea rolls on in might;
And the lime waves day and night;
And thou standest in thy height.
And the sea rolls on in might;
And the lime waves day and night;
And thou standest in thy height.
